So, having one on each side of the motor wouldnt be a problem for a moderate build. I am thinking no, but checking to be sure.

I am in the military and from my experience the E5 probably does all the work and runs the show while the E7 drinks coffee and feels superior to the E5. sorry, I had to.

the E7 heads have a smaller compustion chamber, which raises compression, and make more HP

Yes, I am technically hijacking this thread with this question.......
And yes, Adder and I commented recently on how repeat ?'s suck.....(yes I do work for Ford. Sorry I didn't reply, Adder.)
But, the motor I am putting in my '79 project is from an 86 grand marq. Does it have the E7's or the crappy ones used beforehand? (or do I not know what the hell I am talking about [&:]?)
I can get heads from an 87, will those be any better?
Keep in mind that I should be able to find the answer to these questions on my own but you guys are just soooooo smart and reply soooooo quickly that I'd rather just ask

yeah, you prolly got the E6SE bullcrap heads

E5TE and E7TE are the same damn heads, any dif. in CC's would be the same as any other E7 to E7 variance. its the E5AE heads that have the larger chambers, which are identical to the D9OE heads.

you are F I N E
